That 4-year old crying because she is tired of hearing about Obama and Romney...

[kelliekat44]

Obama campaign should send her some fruit and a Big Bird doll. I am tired of the ads also. Does anyone think it would hurt Obama if his campaign just dropped a few showings and left them until after 7pm in most states? I think that he has and will receive all the votes he can get and nothing is going to change except to piss people off. I could be wrong, but I cringe every time those Romney ads are shown back to back. I think a lot of other people do also. Then right after two or more Romney ads comes an Obama ad and I feel like his campaign ads are laden with the "nuisance" factor when they are all jumbled up in the same ad times.

1. That four year old is crying because of hte noise her folks are making

when they see the ads over and over.
Those ads aren't showing on the cartoon channels. Tell her to beg her parents for the remote.

4. Or turn the damned thing off and read her a book.

This is not to say that kids shouldn't watch TV, that's another discussion. But when it starts affecting them to this extent, it is the responsibility of the parent to turn it off. Or, as you point out, these commercials are not being shown on channels that are suitable for kids.

2. Turn off your TV.

Simple fix.

Or tune it to PBS.

3. Agreed!

Yes, I think the Obama campaign could drop their ads at this point. The president is getting plenty of positive press from the hurricane and the Romney Jeep fiasco.

5. I hope someone from his campaign gets this message.

7. Enjoy your stay as you watch the Rmoney ads

and let me know what flowers you'd like for your 'Garden'.

8. The ads are already paid for. Non-refundable I think?

But I do think the President should cut back on the campaigning and get some rest. He deserves it.

11. Good point. Don't want him to burn out.

19. LOL

Just ban lying in ads. Then all of Willard's ads would POOF disappear.

6. BS --- The ads with Barack Obama are calm and soothing. Here's my plan.

Let the Mittwit and his crew have an attack of conscience.

Parents TURN OFF YOUR Fricken TV's and spend time with your kids.

9. Oh,

The concern is overwhelming!

Hey, what about the RMoney ads? There are a lot more of those!

10. I blame the parents...

i live in a swing state..I don't see the ads, why are the parents acting like their mute or FF buttons are broken?

12. Couldn't they find a weather balloon to send her up in?

13. The article states

that the child was reacting to an NPR broadcast while in the car. Apparently, the family watches little TV if the Mom's story is accurate.

[HipChick]

15. Same deal..parents have the responsibility to use the power off, or mute button the radio..

instead...they film it and post it to youtube..

[treestar]

16. Then the kid wouldn't be tired of the ads

[BarbaRosa]

14. I pretty much feel the same way,

Here's my campaign button

17. My first thought was that the parents could help with this.

Obviously she is being bombarded with political opinions and ads per her parents viewing/listening choices. My guess is the parents probably listen to right or left wing radio in their car and have maybe discussed the elections. There are plenty of music stations where there aren't ads. I could be wrong, because I haven't lived in a swing state for decades. Hopefully no one is putting out ads during the tv shows that are specifically aimed towards kids.

18. Easy to fix problem

Just ban lying in ads. Half the ads would disappear - the Flip-Flopper ads.
